Spring registration open at Mendocino College

LAKE COUNTY -- Registration is now open for new students for the spring semester at Mendocino College. The schedule of classes is available for download on the college's website.

The 53-page schedule contains details for every class offered through Mendocino College for the Spring 2013 semester, which begins Jan. 22. This includes classes held at the Lake and Willits centers in addition to those held at the main campus in Ukiah. Prospective students will also find classes offered online.

Basic skills classes are available in math and English and are designed to meet the needs of new students. Placement tests are available through the college's learning center.

Transfer-level classes can be applied toward a degree at a four-year school.

Career and Technical Education courses are for students who seek employable skills.

Guleff added that "There seems to be a misconception" that arts classes were cut from the college's offerings. According to Guleff, more than 60 courses are offered in Arts and Theater sections of the schedule. Classes range from from painting, drawing and ceramics to dance, acting and costume construction.

Information is available online at www.mendocino.edu. The website features an online application, online registration and information about services such as orientation, counseling and financial aid.
